Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Each performer is paid a minimum of £20. Depending on the profit made on the event etc this may increase. We wish it could be more but due to our events now ending at  23:00 at our main venue and our tickets being brought down in price, our funds are lower than ever. We hope to progress in 2024 to raise the performer fee.

Yes. Each performer will be emailed two free guest list tickets on the run up to the event. These two tickets are one for yourself and one for a plus one. Both of these will be emailed to you as the performer before the event. These can also be found in your Skiddle App. If you cannot find your tickets please message us, regardless the staff member on the ticket desk will be able to manually find your ticket anyway.

Your backing tracks and any other sound equipment such as microphones will be checked before hand regardless of whether you attend sound check or not. Our sound techs will be incontact prior to the event with any queries or issues.
